Money can’t buy Jeb Bush the White House, but it still skews politics - The Washington Post

In spite of the rhetoric of some campaign reformers, money doesn't buy elections. Instead, it increases the odds of electoral victory and of getting one's way on policies, tax breaks and government contracts. And the presidential race is the place we are least likely to see money's effects. Looking to Congress and the states, though, we can see that the era of big money unleashed by the Supreme Court is hurtling us toward a plutocracy in which the people with the greatest economic power can wield great political power through campaign donations and lobbying.
